The compressive strength & water absorption of chicken egg shell concrete

Concrete products are widely utilised in the building and construction. Ordinary Portland cement (OPC), one of the basic materials, is often costly and emits carbon dioxide during manufacture. As a consequence of the social and environmental challenges of sustainability and energy conservation, the...

Civil engineering (General) Concrete products are widely utilised in the building and construction.

The compressive strength & water absorption of chicken egg shell concrete
description Concrete products are widely utilised in the building and construction. Ordinary Portland cement (OPC), one of the basic materials, is often costly and emits carbon dioxide during manufacture. As a consequence of the social and environmental challenges of sustainability and energy conservation, the cement industry is urging it to reduce and partially replace cement production with supplemental cementing ingredients.
